Hi,
I live in Normandy, France, in a country and a region (europe) where Weber refuse to sell the Jumbo Joe. The Smokey Joe I feel is too small for our family of 5.
My propsed solution, on which I would welcome your learned opinions, is to make a short set of legs for one of the Classic Kettle grills.
Can you guys, or gals, confirm that the outside diameter of the legs is 1”?
Would there be enough room to drill a hole in the leg holder to add a small bolt and wing nut to hold the legs? The available set of spare legs, which would need to be cut down, are way too expensive.
Would the ash tray (not the enclosed one) be easily removed and swaped between my short legs and the original?
This would give the missus what she wants, I low down open grill to sit around and give me the option of using the covered grill at stand up height when necessary.
Your thoughts and suggestions welcomed.
TIA
Andy
Ps
I should add that retail outlets have zero stock of grills at this time of year. They have all been cleared out to make way for Christmas tat etc. I can order online though.
